Leaks have pointed to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare releasing its Warzone battle royale mode in “early March.” Call of Duty: Modern Warfare updates are typically released on Tuesdays, which is why fans think that Tuesday, March 3 or Tuesday, March 10 are the most likely dates for the mode to be available. The prevailing theory is that the Modern Warfare Warzone battle royale mode will first release in the game itself, but will have a standalone, free-to-play release at some point down the line.

Something else fueling the Modern Warfare March 3 or March 10 Warzone release date theory is a recent development in the game itself. Infinity Ward has updated the “classified” section in game to say “TRANSMISSION INCOMING.” This has led many fans to believe that an official Modern Warfare Warzone battle royale release date is imminent.

Something else that may point to the Modern Warfare Warzone battle royale release date is a poster on the Piccadilly map. Twitter account Call of Duty Warzone News noticed that the poster is advertising a fictional movie called War Beast that has a March 3 release date. It’s entirely possible that this is just a coincidence, but it’s also possible that this is a deliberate tease on the part of Infinity Ward. However, this poster has been in Modern Warfare since launch, likely before Infinity Ward had the Warzone battle royale release date nailed down, so fans shouldn’t hold their breath for a March 3 release.

Based on the leaks and other evidence, it seems like the most likely scenario is that the Modern Warfare Warzone battle royale mode release date is Tuesday, March 10. However, it’s possible that a completely different release date is planned instead, so fans should keep their expectations in check. Hopefully Infinity Ward reveals the Modern Warfare Warzone release date soon, as well as its supposedly massive player count, so fans can stop speculating.
